Carb question

[woosimons]

I've got a 2000 warrior....should I have any "play" on the carb when its seated to quad? as in, just by grabbing the carb, you can twist it back and forth a little...I don't know if thats normal or not...and if i shouldn't, how crappy can that make the quad run?

thats normal just don't keep twisting it back and forth cause if the intake boot is old it will crack or rip and then you'll need a new boot $30
it is made to flex cause it's not a solid boot
unless it's just the carb moving and not along with the boot then the bolts aren't tight enough
